Why January here
The Kopili reservoir town with Garampani hot springs and cave country nearby.
Umrangso sits on the Kopili reservoir in eastern Dima Hasao: boating on the lake, the Garampani hot springs, and the cave-and-rock country the district is known for. A slow-traveller stop rather than a sightseeing one.
Wildlife this month: Kaziranga and Manas are open and at their best: grass is short and sightings are easiest.
What to do
